Common Boiler Repair Needs
November 10, 2016
Boilers require fewer repairs because they have less moving parts than other heating systems. Even with that fact in place, boilers are not meant to last forever. Boiler repairs in Elk Grove Village, IL often contain one of these three common problems.
-
Leaking Seals
Leaks are a problem in any boiler system. They wastewater and can cause damage to flooring and the boilers themselves. Leaks occur because of high water pressure, corrosion across pipes, loose connections and for many other reasons. If you notice any leaks in your boiler, call a professional for help with the issue.
-
De-Scaling
Lime deposits can build up inside a boiler’s tank due to the mineral count in the water. When the scales spread through the rest of the tank, it can unbalance the water temperature. Professionals will have to remove the scales and return the tank back to its normal status.
-
Dirty Burner
Many boilers are gas-powered and those jets heat the water and a burner below the tank. If the burner gets dusty, it can block the oxygen from the jets and that will make it harder to ignite. A technician will have to remove the burner and clean it thoroughly so the jets can turn on and continue the heating process.
